30、? Maybe ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or even  one million!Every 98 minutes, there is a new English word being created. Last time when words were being added  to the language at this rate was during the days of William Shakespeare. The widespre

31、ad  popularity of English has brought  the most fertile (丰富的) period of word creation. About 1.53 billion people speak English as a primary, a second or a business language. The Global Language Monitor, located  in the state of Texas in the US, has been r

32、ecording English word creation since 2003. Now, there are almost one million English words.Words that are predicted to be the one millionth include  “defollow, “defriend, “noob, and “greenwashing. “Defollow and “defriend are Internet words, describing   what users

33、do with a person they do not wish to stay  in touch with on the Internet. “Noob is an offending name for someone new to  a particular task or community. The word “greenwashing refers to  what companies do to appear environmentally  friendly

34、. And “chiconomics means a difficult time in fashion. Of course, there is a possibility  that the one millionth word will be a sixth choice. The Global Language Monitor once expected  that the millionth English word would be “imminent in 2006, but the organization has&#

35、160;put off  that expected date more than  once. Other experts have have expressed doubts about its methods because they dont think that there is an agreement about how to classify a word. 61. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. There are over one billion

36、people speak English as a primary language.B. The one millionth word has six choices.C. The Global Language Monitor is in America.D. There is an agreement about how to classify a word.62.

You dont like your friend any more.64. We can infer that this passage was written _. A. in 2003 B. in 200

38、5 C. in 2006 D. after 2006 (B)Feeling blue about the world? “Cheer up. says science writer Matt Ridley. “The world has never been a better place to live in, and it will keep on getting better both for humans and for nature.Ridley calls himself a rational optimistrational, because he's carefully

39、weighed the evidence; optimistic, because that evidence shows human progress to be both unavoidable and good. And this is what he's set out to prove from a unique point of view in his most recent book, The Rational Optimist. He views mankind as a grand enterprise that, on the whole, has done lit

40、tle but progress for 100,000 years. He backs his findings with hard facts gathered through years of research.Here's how he explains his views.1 ) Shopping fuels inventionIt is reported that there are more than ten billion different products for sale in London alone. Even allowing for the many pe

41、ople who still live in poverty, our own generation has access to more nutritious food, more convenient transport, bigger houses, better cars, and, of course, more pounds and dollars than any who lived before us. This will continue as long as we use these things to make other things. The more we spec

42、ialize and exchange, the better off we'll be.2) Brilliant advancesOne reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer­lived and freer than ever before is that the four most basic human needsfood, clothing, fuel and shelterhave grown a lot cheaper. Take one example. In 1800 a candl

43、e providing one hour's light cost six hours' work. In the 1880s the same light from an oil lamp took 15 minutes' work to pay for. In 1950 it was eight seconds. Today it's half second.3 ) Let's not kill ourselves for climate changeMitigating (减轻) climate change could prove just as

44、 damaging to human welfare as climate change itself. A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village, where the use of fossil­fuel (化石燃料) electricity is forbidden by well­meaning members of green political movements trying to save the world, is just as great a tragedy as a child that dies

45、 in a flood caused by climate change. If climate change proves to be mild, but cutting carbon causes real pain, we may well find that we have stopped a nose­bleed by putting a tourniquet (止血带) around our necks.65. What is the theme of Ridley's most recent book? A. Weakness of human nature.

46、B. Concern about climate change. C. Importance of practical thinking. D. Optimism about human progress.66. How does Ridley look at shopping? A. It encourages the creation of things. B. It results in shortage of goods. C. It demands more fossil fuels. D. It causes a poverty problem.67. The candle and

47、 lamp example is used to show that _. A. oil lamps give off more light than candles B. shortening working time brings about a happier life C. advanced technology helps to produce better candles D. increased production rate leads to lower cost of goods68. What does the last sentence of the passage im

48、ply? A. Cutting carbon is necessary in spite of the huge cost. B. Overreaction to climate change may be dangerous. C. People's health is closely related to climate change. D. Careless medical treatment may cause great pain.CPsychology(心理学) has a new application in the field of medicine. Many doc

49、tors, together with their patients, are looking for alternative methods of treatment of physical problems. In large hospitals, modern therapy(疗法) seems to focus on the physical disease. Patients may feel they are treated like broken machines. Some doctors have recognized this as a problem. They are

50、now using psychological therapy, in which the patient is working with the doctors against the disease with the help of medicine. The patient does not wait for the medicine and treatment to cure him or her, but instead the patient joins in the fight.The doctor knows that a disease affects a patient&#

51、39;s body physically. The body of the patient changes because of the disease. He is not only physically affected, but also has an emotional response to the disease. Because his mind is affected, his attitude and behavior change. The medical treatment might cure the patient's physical problems, b

52、ut the patient's mind must fight the emotional ones. For example, the studies of one doctor, Carl Simonton, M. D， have shown that a typical cancer patient has predictable attitudes. She typically feels depressed, upset, and angry. Her constant depression makes her acts unfriendly toward her fami

53、ly, friends, doctors, and nurses. Such attitudes and behaviors prevent recovery. Therefore, a doctor's treatment must help the patient change that. Simonton's method emphasizes treatment of the “whole patient.The attitude of a cancer patient receiving radiation therapy, an X­ray treatme

54、nt, can become more positive. The physician who is following Simonton's psychological treatment plan suggests that the patient imagine that he or she can see the tumor(肿瘤) in the body. In the mental picture, the patient “sees a powerful beam of radiation like a million bullets of energy. The pat

55、ient imagines the beam hitting the tumor cells and causing them to shrink. For another cancer patient, Dr. Simonton asks him to imagine the medicine going from the stomach into the bloodstream and to the cancer cells. The patient imagines that the medicine is like an army fighting the diseased cells

56、 and sees the cancer cells gradually dying and his blood carry away the dead cells. Both the medical therapy and the patient's positive attitude fight the disease. Doctors are not certain why this mental therapy works. However, this use of psychology does help some patients because their attitud

57、es about themselves change. They become more confident because they use the power within their own minds to help stop the disease.Another application of using the mind to help cure disease is the use of suggestions therapy. At first, the doctor helps the patient to concentrate deeply. The patient thinks only about one thing. He becomes so unaware of other things around him that he is asleep, or rather in a trance(催眠状态). Then the physi
